Yup, this is a side effect of using the index instead of the .gitmodules
file.

But I think I found the real issue, the stdout of the forked "git fetch"
was swallowed due to a copy & paste bug while the actual fetch commands
were executed nonetheless. Please try the following change:

diff --git a/submodule.c b/submodule.c
index e2c3bae..4fb1071 100644
--- a/submodule.c
+++ b/submodule.c
